@martin-bellamy Nice one Martin, congratulations to all involved. ATB John

Good old Boro, they have managed to snatch a defeat from the jaws of at least a draw with sloppy defending. Defending I hear people say... Quite dep...

In West Norfolk the foothills are shrouded by rain and mist with a light breeze and it's very mild. I can't see the mountain tops at all. I'm still un...
